OBJECTIVE: To develop and compare a random survival forest (RSF) model and a Cox regression model-for predicting postoperative recurrence in patients with ovarian endometrioma. METHODS: The primary outcomes of the study were the recurrence…
Neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) are a rare type of tumor originating from peptidergic neurons and neuroendocrine cells, which exhibit neuroendocrine differentiation and neuroendocrine marker expression. NENs can occur in any part of the bod…
BACKGROUND: The relationship between the vascular flow index (VFI) of the endometrium and the pregnancy outcome in the frozen embryo transfer (FET) cycle remains controversial, and there is currently no recommended optimal range for VFI. O…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EMs) is often classified as a benign disease; however, it exhibits malignant biological characteristics. Collapsin Response Mediator Protein 4 (CRMP4) has been implicated in the regulation of cell migration and in…
Age-related fertility decline is an increasingly important challenge in reproductive medicine, driven largely by progressive ovarian aging. The aging ovary undergoes functional deterioration characterized by reduced ovarian reserve and decl…
OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to examine SEMA3C expression in endometriosis (EMs) and its relationship with ferroptosis in human endometrial stromal cells (HESCs). DESIGN: This experimental study used patient tissue samples and in …
BACKGROUND: Keratoconus (KC) is a progressive bilateral corneal ectatic disorder characterized by corneal thinning, irregular astigmatism, and subsequent vision impairment. The main purpose of this study is to investigate sex hormone-mediat…
BACKGROUND: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is associated with an increased risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and the risk of PCOS increases in patients with T2DM of reproductive age. The bidirectional link between PCOS and T2DM has…
Premature ovarian failure (POF) and insufficiency induced by cisplatin are common complications associated with gynecological diseases. This study aims to investigate the role of N6-methyladenosine (m6A) methyltransferase METTL16 in cisplat…
Ascites, a hallmark of advanced ovarian cancer, severely impairs patient quality of life and contributes to therapeutic resistance. Current management strategies remain primarily palliative, highlighting the urgent need to elucidate the und…
Oral delivery of protein and peptide therapeutics (PPs) offers a non-invasive, patient-friendly alternative to parenteral administration, yet faces multiple formidable barriers due to the complex gastrointestinal (GI) environment. This revi…
To explore the material basis and network mechanism of the Guizhi Fuling pills in the treatment of endometriosis and endometrial polyps based on network pharmacology and machine learning. The effective constituents and targets of the Guizhi…
BACKGROUND: Multiple myeloma (MM) in association with pregnancy is a rare event, and a consensus is lacking. It is urgent to increase the awareness of investigations required for a suspected diagnosis of MM during pregnancy and optimise its…
INTRODUCTION: Adenomyosis, which affects > 20% of reproductive-age women, is a major cause of infertility. Defective decidualization of endometrial stromal cells (ESCs) is a key pathogenic feature of adenomyosis; however, the underlying red…
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Endometriosis is a chronic, hormone-dependent disorder characterized by ectopic implantation of endometrial tissue, often accompanied by pain and infertility. Although the progesterone receptor modulator RU486 is eff…
BACKGROUND: Ovarian cancer, the third most prevalent gynecological malignancy, is frequently diagnosed at an advanced stage owing to its asymptomatic early progression. Despite the application of conventional therapies, clinical management …
BACKGROUND: Migraine is a chronic neurological disorder characterized by severe headache, nausea, and sensitivity to light and sound, affecting approximately 1 billion people globally. Despite advances in understanding migraine pathophysiol…
Endometriosis (EMs) is a chronic neuroinflammatory disorder prevalent in women of reproductive age characterized by heterogeneous clinical manifestations, while conventional Western therapies are limited by obvious adverse reactions and uns…

OBJECTIVE: Ultrasound imaging of the endometrium is often affected by speckle noise, low contrast, and physiological cycle variations, which lead to blurred boundaries and ambiguous structural representation. To address these challenges, th…
Infertility is a complex and sensitive phenomenon experienced by many couples worldwide. Our study investigated the causal effects of 486 serum metabolites on infertility using a Mendelian randomization (MR) approach, providing insights int…
Endometriosis (EMs) is a systemic inflammatory disease characterized by the growth of endometrial tissue outside the uterus. Its underlying mechanisms remain unclear, contributing to limitations in diagnosis and treatment. This study evalua…
OBJECTIVE: Herlyn-Werner-Wunderlich syndrome (HWWS) is a rare female reproductive tract malformation. Accurate preoperative diagnosis and classification are vital for surgical planning. This study aims to evaluate the diagnostic value of hi…
Endometriosis is a debilitating chronic inflammatory disorder driven by extensive molecular reprogramming. Despite significant bench research into its pathogenesis, translating these molecular discoveries into clinical practices that improv…
BACKGROUND: The incidence of malignant tumors/precancerous lesions is rising, yet their impact on pregnancy outcomes in women undergoing in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI) remains unclear. METHODS: A single-…
